PHILADELPHIA - A 20-year-old woman was sitting in the back of a ride-share when another driver's road rage ended with her suffering a gunshot wound, according to Pennsylvania State Police.
The ride-share was driving eastbound on Interstate 76 towards I-676 when a speeding Nissan Altima tried to merge in an "unsafe manner" just after midnight Saturday.
Police say a road rage incident ensued when the Nissan driver pulled alongside the ride-share, rolled down their window, fired three shots, then fled.
